Preheat oven to 180°C. Cut out discs of pastry to line muffin tins. Place 1 teaspoon of pesto in each pastry case and top with the grated cheese. In a bowl beat the eggs and add the cream.

Mix together and season with salt and pepper. Pour into the pastry cases and bake for 20 to 25 minutes in pre-heated oven until puffed and golden. The tarts will deflate as they cool. Serve warm from the oven, or the tarts can be reheated. Makes 12
